It sounds silly.

No, not to me.

Yeah.

But then I had to repack mum's remains.

And I guess the beauty of

that, and I don't believe everything happens for a reason, but as I was packing mum's remains, I just had to go to a hardware store, buy bags and seals and tape just to make sure everything was proper.

I noticed marks on mum's bones.

And I also, like they gave me mum's possessions in a bag, like just a garbage bag.

But I noticed as I was going through mum's possessions, her sunglasses were smashed on the left-hand side.

And the fact that I found skull fragments plus marks on mum's bones and then handed that to the South Australian Forensic Science Unit, who were phenomenal.

Like the police rang me and they actually talked about mum's remains as if,

mum was a human again and said, we just want to take care of your mum.

Are we able to?

And as soon as I landed that same day, they're on the phone saying, hey, we just want to get the process started.

Is it okay if we come and collect your mum and we'll look after her and we'll put her in a safe place, et cetera?

And it was just brilliant.

And Trevor Schneider basically followed us through the whole way and he helped write a statement for me to try and get a current link west in South Australia as well.

By noticing those marks and the smashed glasses, they were able to confirm, heartbreakingly, that mum suffered from blunt force trauma at the time of her death, which confirmed what we thought all along, which was murder.

I can't submit that to the coroner Lindquist.

I can attempt to.
